To be sure, the burning of fossil fuels, such as coal, oil and gas, is the chief driver of the climate emergency.
to the messaging that promotes ineffective solutions and draws attention away from more effective measures.world's first comprehensive roadmapThe IEA said in May that there could be no new oil, gas or coal development if the world is to reach net-zero by the middle of the century. It added government pledges at that time fell"well short" of what would be necessary to reach net-zero.
This is rejected by climate researchers, campaigners and environmental advocacy groups, however, who argue these schemes provide cover for heavy polluting actors to continue with a business-as-usual approach. "And alongside that, we have nature-based solutions, which sounds so appealing. We see it very much as a wolf in sheep's clothing. Sounds really nice but actually, it is another kind of repackaging of net-zero, of offsets, reducing emissions from deforestation and degradation by planting trees and creating carbon sinks. It is the same thing, but it has been made to sound very attractive.
Shaw said net-zero pledges from many governments and international companies were largely"tinkering around the edges" of the real problem."They just need to stop burning fossil fuels. They need to come out of that business [and] they need to make that systemic transformation.
